Strong bones help maintain mobility and enhance quality of life. People with HIV are more prone to bone loss and fractures, but you can take steps to improve bone health. Bone is living tissue largely made up of minerals and collagen. Cells called osteoblasts continually add new bone tissue, while osteoclasts dissolve old bone. As people age, bone resorption starts to outpace bone formation, and bone mass naturally declines. Osteopenia is an earlier stage of bone loss, which can progress to osteoporosis.

Neurology News Network. for the week ending August 3, 2024. [WATCH TIME: 4 minutes]. Welcome to this special edition of Neurology News Network. I'm Marco Meglio. According to an announcement, the FDA has approved Alpha Cognition’s ALPHA-1062 (Zunveyl), a prodrug of an approved AChE inhibitor, galantamine, as a treatment for patients with mild-to-moderate Alzheimer disease (AD). ALPHA-1062, a delayed-release oral tablet formulation, is considered a new-generation AChEI inhibitor, with expected minimal gastrointestinal adverse events. The approval was based on results from 4 studies demonstrating the bioequivalence of ALPHA-1062 to galantamine and galantamine extended-release (ER). Across those studies, only 2% of treated patients had AEs from treatment, with no cases of insomnia observed. ALPHA-1062 is absorbed in the small intestine as an insert drug. Binding with AChE in the gastrointestinal nervous system is blocked by the addition of a benzyl ester to galantamine.
